BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -ˈsak-ə-ˌrīd also-rəd. : a simple sugar, combination of sugars, or polymerized sugar see disaccharide, monosaccharide, oligosaccharide, polysaccharide, trisaccharide.

Detailed explanation-2: -saccharide (plural saccharides) (biochemistry) The unit structure of carbohydrates, of general formula CnH2nOn. Either the simple sugars or polymers such as starch and cellulose.

Detailed explanation-3: -Natural sugars, also called saccharides or carbohydrates, are polyhydroxylated aldehydes or ketones with the brute chemical formula Cn(H2O)m where n and m may be different. They are named by the suffix “-ose”. There are notably two families: ketoses and aldoses, containing from 3 to 7 carbon atoms for natural oses.

Detailed explanation-4: -A saccharide is the unit structure of carbohydrates. In biochemistry, saccharides are the carbohydrates or sugars that serve as the main source of energy that fuels diverse biochemical processes. The chemical formula for carbohydrates is Cn(H2O)n, this formula indicates whether the saccharide is simple or complex.

Detailed explanation-5: -Common table sugar is sucrose. Some other sugars are fructose, which is found in fruits; lactose, which is found in milk; and glucose, which is the most common sugar in the bodies of animals and plants.
